Pronouncing the various sounds of the letter E

There are three common sounds using the letter E. The ee sound is used with the front part of the mouth, the eh sound is used with the middle portion of the mouth, and the er sound is used with the rear portion of the mouth.

Here are some words that come from the front of the mouth using the sound ee.

Like most vowels, the sound of E varies according to which consonant is next to it. The R sound uses the middle to back portion of the mouth so combining the letter E with R makes it so you use the back portion of the mouth.
